Abstract
The article presents a groundbreaking study where a petavoxel fragment of human cerebral cortex was reconstructed at nanoscale resolution, revealing intricate details of neural circuits and synaptic connections. Topics discussed include the methodology of obtaining high-quality human brain tissue, the generation of a petascale dataset through high-throughput serial section electron microscopy, and the identification of previously unrecognized neuronal classes and multisynaptic connections.
